The Stanley Brothers – Memories Of Mother (Guitar)

D                          G             D
On a dark stormy night the angels called mother

D                                      A
The love that we had shared for such a short while

D                        G            D
She called us around and said she was leaving

D    G           D         A           D
Then closing her eyes, she went with a smile

D                     G            D
Mother's at rest in a lonesome old graveyard

D                                         A
On a hill far away there stands her white tomb

A        G             D     A     G  A
With the grass covered o'er, seems so neglected

A                       D     A                  D
When the spring seasons come, sweet flowers will bloom

D                          G      D
I'll never forget the love mother gave us

D                                    A
As children we played around our old home

A          D           G          D
I know her reward is a mansion in heaven

D         G                     A             D
While her children on earth all scattered and gone

D                     G            D
Mother's at rest in a lonesome old graveyard

D                                         A
On a hill far away there stands her white tomb

A        G             D     A     G  A
With the grass covered o'er, seems so neglected

A                       D     A                  D
When the spring seasons come, sweet flowers will bloom
